In this Solo India Travel Vlog, I'll show you around Rishikesh, India where I spent almost the entire month of January! Rishikesh is known as the yoga capital of the world. It's also one of the religious cities in India where there is no meat and no alcohol allowed in the city! I even found it difficult to eat eggs as most places substituted things like tofu scramble. I start by leaving yoga school and checking into the amazing Narayana Sanctuary where I had heat and hot water and a bathtub!!! I didn't realize Rishikesh was so COLD in January! The following morning I start by walking along the main street of Rishikesh down to my favorite cafe - Tat Cafe. It's right next to the famous Beatles Cafe and has the most gorgeous views of the Ganga (Ganges) River. After having a delicious breakfast I walked clothes to the river for the best view of the famous pink temple. Unfortunately the famous bridge in Rishikesh is currently under construction, however you can still get a good view of the temple! I continued walking down the hill to 'the beach' in Rishikesh where you can pay 40 rupees to take a boat to the other side (which you would normally be able to cross over using the bridge). Luckily the boats run really frequently and it's a super quick ride! My video shakes in the middle as the guy sitting next to me asked for a selfie on the boat (something that happens VERY frequently in India!!!). I decided to go to the Beatles Ashram before the pink temple as the ashram closed earlier. I thought I would take a tuktuk there, but I couldn't find one so I ended up walking the 40ish minutes there. I was confused when I arrived as the entrance to the Beatles Ashram says 'Tiger Reserve', however this adorable boy who was selling Tilaks told me it was the ashram! The entrance price for foreigners was 1,200 rupees. I spent a couple hours walking all around the Beatles Ashram. There were so many cool buildings to explore! From meditation huts to dark, creepy basements to rooftops full of graffiti. I also saw the famous Beatles murals. When I left I walked back to the pink temple along the Ganga River. It was a really nice walk that I hadn't done before! It took me almost exactly 40 minutes from leaving the Beatles Ashram to arrive at the pink temple (Trayambakeshwar Temple). There's a place next to the entrance to check your shoes and then you can start the climb up to the top. The view from the top of the temple is amazing! You can see all of the river Ganga and the beginning of sunset was stunning! I then left the temple and crossed back over the river to watch sunset at BeMonk Restaurant - an Ayurvedic restaurant with great sunset views. After dinner I went to So Hum Cafe to get dessert with some of my friends from yoga school who were still in Rishikesh. It was such a great day exploring Rishikesh, India!!!
